    Scam Report

    Report Type: [Rep Fraud] Impersonation with intent to defraud
    Virtual item type involved: [TF2] Team Fortress 2 Items

    Accused profile: 76561198423686552

    Victim profile: 76561198056793444

    What happened? Description:
    After I sent an invite to the actual trader Arcan (as listed in Victim Info), the impersonator sent me an invite asking to buy the keys I was going to sell to Arcan.
    He had his Steam name and avatar changed to match Arcans exactly, and had this in his profile description -
    "This is my DISCUSSION ACCOUNT, I WILL NOT ACCEPT ANY FRIEND REQUEST. IF YOU WANT TO TALK COMMENT ON MY MAIN FIRST SO I CAN ADD YOU ASAP." He's now changed his username and profile pic.​

    Provide Evidence:
    I've attached how his profile looked when he sent me the invite, impersonating Arcan. Then just the chat. He may have covered at the end saying the keys will be sent to his main account, the Victim one, when I said he was probably a scammer. Regardless I've asked the main whether this was actually his discussion account or not and will soon get an answer. I'll post it here.

    This is the post where I found him.

    Oh yeah, one more thing. His customURL is a fake one made to look like a real ID64.
